  • Also check out our website for up coming training classes and services bit.ly/GFAcademy In this Geauga Firearms Academy video we look at the all new Alien Gear single and double magazine pouch. Each carrier comes with a neoprene backer, just like our Cloak Tuck 3.0 iwb holster, and two holster clips - including our standard glass-filled nylon belt clip. This allows the wearer to carry their spare magazine in virtually any manner they wish.
    These are demonstrations of concepts and best practices, and in no way replace actual hands on training with a competent instructor. As always seek professional training.

    I've been wearing my Alien Gear shape shift holster for a week now and love it. It's much more comfortable than my old kydex one. I'll have to order a mag pouch now.

    Great review. Dissuaded me from the dual as I want to carry IWB. Thanks man!

  • @TheSkyMex
    @TheSkyMex Před 7 lety +1

    As one who wears my IWB Alien Gear daily and loves it, I was certainly considering this mag pouch.
    After your review, however, I think I will simply continue to carry my extra mag in my opposite trouser pocket.
    Love your videos. You're an alright guy for a Buckeye.
    Keep up the great work and God bless.

  • @Breaker197
    @Breaker197 Před 2 lety

    Decided to watch out of curiosity, and also having been favorably impressed by their duty holster. Im glad I did. I like to carry my spare mag horizontally, as i carry an extended mag as a backup. The problem is that practically nobody makes horizontal mag carriers that I've seen. For years, I've just been securing my spare mag with ranger band that I run my belt through. This mag carrier might just be a game changer for my carry purposes.

  • @dmcrim624

  • @luckygamer05
    @luckygamer05 Před 7 lety +2

    I've had these for about 2 months now and I'd agree with you 100% on everything. I originally wanted to do IWB but being incredibly bulky, I just use it double OWB for my EDC. Being completely adjustable (and very comfortable) is definitely a good thing but, like you mentioned, makes it a bit bulky.

    Thanks for the info bud. I've been looking for a holster for open carry on my property. You've shown it's not the one for open carry around town, etc., but I'd never do that anyway... don't want people knowing you're armed, then you're a target if shit goes down. Anyhow, good stuff. Thanks, I think this holster will work for the property.

    I bought one along with the AG3 holster for the G19 and love. I prefer it owb horizontal. It's a great design. I like the fact that you can adjust it on the go with the built in Allen wrench. It would be great if they could do that also with their holsters. Great video 👍

    @shawnjarman9860 Před 7 lety

    I have their AG 2 IWB holster, and still happy, I'm very happy they have a life time warranty, I've had to replace just about everything, from the kendex shell,the the belt clips, I'm on my second pleather section, and need to contact them to get a new one, Alien Gear holsters are very comfortable, as I wear mine near all the time, only time I'm not using it is when I go to bed, but lack durability in my opinion, I've been thinking of trying the AG3 holster to see if the durability is better

  • @HFDEXP551
    @HFDEXP551 Před 7 lety

    Great review! FYI there is a locking lever that you can turn 90° that prevents the clip from inadvertently opening hence releasing the clip from holster. Also there is a hidden Allen key hidden in the holster under the sliding clip! Love your videos btw

  • @hasson224
    @hasson224 Před 5 lety

    If you want an option for a magazine holster which fits most magazines, check out Harry's Holsters. His 3 in 1 kydex magazine holster allows for a horizontal mount, and it is a one of a kind mag carrier. I want to like Alien Gear, but all their gear is bulky with more parts than I want to mess with. I believe Alien gear has great customer service, and they are innovative, but they have opted to build products which are the Swiss Army knife of the holster world, while I prefer custom and specific purpose gear. I like you as a reviewer, keep up the good reviews.

  • @brianmagsipoc8718
    @brianmagsipoc8718 Před 7 lety +10

    IMO the best mag pouch out there. I suffer from tactical muffin top (need to exercise more) so mag pouches in the normal vertical position dig into me. This mag pouch can be adjusted horizontally which is perfect for me. I've got 2, one for single stack 9mm/40 and one for double stack.

    • @gotyoursix7573
      @gotyoursix7573 Před 3 lety

      When pulling mag out horizontally... does the retention clip slide on you on your belt or is it very well retained with no sliding movement?

    • @brianmagsipoc8718
      @brianmagsipoc8718 Před 3 lety +1

      @@gotyoursix7573 surprised this comment is getting replies all these years later lol. FWIW I have since lost weight and no longer carry in the horizontal, I carry AIWB most of the time, both pistol and mag pouch. The nice thing about the alien gear pouch is it can be readily customized to carry IWB or OWB, horizontal or vertical. By "retention clip" I'm assuming you mean the belt clip that attaches the pouch to your belt. If I'm carrying it horizontal I can either clip it just behind one of the pants loops or clip it to a doubled up portion of my belt. Either way keeps it from sliding around.

    @siestatime4638 Před 7 lety

    Good honest review. Thank you.
    I love the modularity and innovation, but I just can't see something that thick working well IWB, especially with the firearm already tucked in there. If I were race gunning or open carrying, I think I'd give these a try.

  • @sijonda
    @sijonda Před 3 lety

    I haven't tried my double stack 9mm mags as an IWB but I have worn my single stack 45 acp mags as IWB and it fits fine for me with my 1911 IWB 3.5 holster.
    There are two big issues. The tension screws wonder over a few days of use and I ordered with molle support and I don't see how that's supposed to work.

  • @gotyoursix7573
    @gotyoursix7573 Před 3 lety

    When mounted OWB horizontal... does the retention belt clip slide on you and your belt when pulling out for next mag reload?

  • @superman82972
    @superman82972 Před 7 lety +1

    I own this mag holder in double-stack 9mm size & love it. Do you own any in single stack size? I'm curious if they're adjustable enough to run either a single stack 9mm or single stack .45 with the same mag holder by adjusting the retention tightness.

    • @gjhoward
      @gjhoward Před 6 lety

      Louis the single stack 9mm work for 40. Not sure about 45 though.

    Can I ask you something?
    I just received my alien gear shoulder holster, I use a glock 17 gen 3 but the magazine doesn’t fit on the magazine pouch.
    Can I make bigger the magazine?
    Thank you.

  • @flytheedge
    @flytheedge Před 6 lety

    I sent mine back for the simple reason stated in the video: they are bulky. I'm going with a T-Rex Arms Micro Mag Carrier. The bulkiness exempted from consideration, they are PERFECT.

  • @doaknife9161

    Is that paddle slim enough to fit molle on a plate carrier ?

  • @Hybr1d08
    @Hybr1d08 Před 7 lety

    Maybe I skipped over it but the mag pouches should have an Allen key wrench concealed in the body of the "pouch". I own a single one but haven't worn it because my attire to date has not been very conducive to concealing a firearm/mag. Good to see someone put it through it's paces though. Love the videos, keep it up!

  • @vicerichter1163
    @vicerichter1163 Před 2 lety

    they're alright. But the tab that keeps the spring latch for the maghooks keeps turning off and the mag buckets can just slide off when you bump it. So Im constantly having to check the tabs to make sure they are facing the right way and the magazine bucket wont fall off. Lol
